OK. Is there a common way to accomplish the old Start -> Run -> type in
the name of a program?

Windows 10 has a (sort of) start menu - click on the windows icon in the bottom left. This brings up a search bar, into which you can type a program name. It's a complete pain in the arse because it seems to think you want to do everything on the web, but you can force it to search your computer, not everyone else's ...

If you just want to run a program that's in your search path, it's been the same since Windows 7 or even earlier - <Windows>-R.

Cheers,
Wol
